Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn) novel Chapter 137

"Joshua, I want to be in the photo too," Lillian chimed in, trying to hide the jealousy in her eyes as she wedged herself between Allison and Joshua.

Sabrina suddenly let out a dramatic gasp. "Oh my goodness!"

Turning his head with concern, Brian asked, "Sabrina, what's up?"

Feigning seriousness, Sabrina replied, "There's such a massive third wheel here, it's practically blinding me."

Lillian heard Sabrina's comment but stood her ground between Allison and Joshua, as shameless as ever.

Since Lillian wasn't budging, Sabrina casually put away her selfie stick and turned to Lillian with her signature fake smile. "Sorry, Ms. Lillian, we’re done with our photos. If you want a picture, you can snap some with Shawn and your girlfriends."

Lillian bit back her retort, forcing a smile as she wrapped her arm around Joshua’s. "Then I’ll just snap a few with my brother."

Allison lowered her gaze, her eyes landing on Lillian’s hand.

Joshua pulled his arm away, his expression cold. "You're old enough to stop clinging to me. Maybe it's time you find a boyfriend."

Despite Lillian's practiced facade, Joshua's suggestion about finding a boyfriend made her smile falter, a hint of hurt flickering in her eyes.

"Why can't I be close to you? Is it just because I'm grown up? You used to spoil me," Lillian protested.

Joshua's tone remained distant. "That was then. It’s different now, Lillian. You need to understand boundaries."

Lillian's earlier behavior had already exposed her true intentions to Joshua. She was still his sister, so he chose not to embarrass her publicly. However, he did recognize her jealousy and hostility towards Allison. As Allison's boyfriend, it was Joshua’s duty to reassure her.
